I'm sorry, but I cannot locate the call number this morning. I know it was carefully kept back then, and it is possibly in one of my file cabinets, but my quick look did not find it. The official name of the map appears to be 'Map of Middle Tennessee by Col. W. E. Merrill, 1865.' I had hoped it was written on the back of my copy of the map, but it isn't. The copy from NARA is big. It covers an area west of the Tennessee River (but without the names of landowners) to the middle of Montgomery County, and from the Tennessee/Kentucky state line far down into Mississippi. If I come across that call number, I'll post it here, but I don't know where to look for it right now. I'm sure it is in one or another of the sources in my database, but I have thousands of people in that database.

Using google, I found that map of Stewart County/Tennesee for sale by various companies http://www.ushistoricalarchive.com/statemaps/tn/24.html ($9.95 to $27.95, depending on size) http://www.rainfall.com/posters/mapscivilwar/8064.htm ($12-$52) University of MD has it int their collection : general webpage http://narademo.umiacs.umd.edu/cgi-bin/isadg/main.html list of maps at U of MD http://narademo.umiacs.umd.edu/cgi-bin/isadg/viewseries.pl?seriesid=5124 ebay currently for $14.98 Gerry Parchman

Thanks so much for the links Gerry. You can even get the map on a CD on one of those sites and it comes with the software to let you enlarge parts of it so you can read it. These old eyes certainly will like that. Thanks to all of you who furnished information on this.
